Thanks for the fix! In Kubuntu Maverick this suddenly started (mostly) working
for me with updates that must have been released sometime towards the end of
April.

However,  for me the fix is partial.
What works: I log in, but the network is not yet available. I start the
wireless network via KNetworkManager, and very soon thereafter the weather
applet updates itself. Hurray!

What doesn't work: then, I put my laptop to sleep, head in to work, and connect
to the wired network (static IP). The weather applet no longer updates every 30
minutes. Moreoever, at the end of the day if I put my laptop back to sleep,
disconnect, head home, and reconnect to my home's wireless network, the weather
applet still fails to update. (Currently it is Saturday, but the weather applet
is still showing the forecast for the previous Wednesday.) So it seems that
it's been fixed for the case when the network wasn't initially available at
all, but the more general problem of a temporary network change or disruption
still seems problematic.
